Markstrom will guard the road goal Saturday versus the Kraken, Wes Gilbertson of the Calgary Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom recently started eight games in a row, going 4-3-1 with a 2.88 GAA and a .900 save percentage before taking Thursday's game versus the Sharks off. He'll get back in the crease against a fairly easy opponent in the lowly Kraken, which makes the Swede a strong option for fantasy managers.

Markstrom stopped 26 of 28 shots in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom was solid once again in a game the Flames never trailed in. The 32-year-old has won two starts in a row to get back on track from a three-game skid. He's up to 33-14-8 with a 2.18 GAA and a .924 save percentage in 56 appearances. With the Flames finishing a back-to-back Thursday in San Jose, Dan Vladar may be due for a start, though no goalie announcement has been officially made yet.

Markstrom will guard the road goal Wednesday versus the Ducks, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom will make his eighth straight start, and he'll go for consecutive wins after beating the Kings on Monday. In his last seven games, Markstrom is 3-3-1 with a 3.00 GAA and an .896 save percentage. The Ducks will welcome Troy Terry (eye) back, which boosts their scoring potential.

Markstrom stopped 27 of 29 shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom snapped his personal three-game losing streak, doing some of his best work to help kill off three penalties in the third period. The 32-year-old has allowed 10 goals in his last four outings. He's up to 32-14-8 with a 2.19 GAA and a .924 save percentage through 55 appearances. The Flames have a back-to-back for their next two games, visiting the Ducks on Wednesday and the Sharks on Thursday.

Markstrom is expected to tend the twine versus the Kings on the road Monday, Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom continues to be a workhorse for the Flames as he will be making his seventh straight appearance in goal. In those prior six contests, the 32-year-old netminder went 2-3-1 with a less than stellar 3.16 GAA. If the Flames are going to maintain first place in the Pacific Division, Markstrom is going to need to improve his numbers down the stretch.

Markstrom allowed four goals on 23 shots in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Blues. The last two goals were empty-netters.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom has had few duds this season, but this was one of them. He's now lost three games in a row, an unusually poor stretch that he's achieved just three times this season. The Swede is at 31-14-8 with a 2.19 GAA and a .924 save percentage in 54 appearances. The Flames begin a road trip Monday against the Kings.

Markstrom will guard the home goal during Saturday's matchup with the Blues, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom has been dialed in of late, having maintained an admirable 1.95 GAA and .935 save percentage through his last two appearances, but he's suffered back-to-back losses over that span due to a lack of goal support from his teammates. He'll look to get back in the win column in a home matchup with a St. Louis squad that's averaging 3.42 goals per game on the road this year, sixth in the NHL.

Markstrom stopped 30 of 32 shots in Thursday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom was solid in this contest, but he couldn't avoid losing consecutive starts. He allowed a game-tying goal to Viktor Arvidsson in the third period, and Lias Andersson racked up the only goal in the shootout. Markstrom is now at 31-13-8 with a 2.15 GAA and a .925 save percentage in 53 starts this season. The Swede will look to get back in the win column in another tough matchup Saturday versus the Blues.

Markstrom is slated to be in goal at home versus Los Angeles on Thursday, Derek Wills of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom will be making his fifth straight for the Flames, which includes taking both ends of a back-to-back. The netminder is one of seven goalies this season to hit 50 games played this year and will likely be among the top of the board in that regard at the end of the season. Overall, the Swede's 31 wins marks a new personal best and could easily reach 35 before the regular season wraps up.

Markstrom allowed two goals on 30 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Avalanche.

EDGE Analysis

Both goals were redirections at close range by Valeri Nichushkin on the power play, leaving Markstrom little chance to respond. Despite the loss, this was a good game for the 32-year-old goalie. He dropped to 31-13-7 with a 2.16 GAA and a .925 save percentage in 52 outings. He's 3-2-1 in his last six outings, but he should get a chance to get back on track Thursday versus the Kings.
